First foreign born and raised player to ply his trade in England?

This somehow came out of the R: How about Sisters? thread
and sounds like a candidate for the Guardian's The Knowledge 
(I've skimmed their archives (as well as RSSSF's) and haven't seen it).

My question is:

who was the first foreign born and raised player to ply his trade in England?

Using the following dates
(according to the Guinness Record of World Soccer, by Guy Oliver, I'd
wish he'd update it as it was published in 1992)

1863 adoption of Association Football rules
1871 launch of the FA Challenge Cup
1885 professionalism legalised
1888 league football introduced

So, outside of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland, who was the first
outsider to play professional league football?

My candidate

Walter Bowman, half back, born and raised in Canada (played for Berlin
(now known as Kitchener) Rangers, so he was likely born in southern
Ontario) before playing for various English sides

Accrington Stanley 1891-1892 5 league appearances, 3 goals
Ardwick (now Manchester City) 1892-1899 47 league appearances, 3 goals


where's Gary Archer when you need him?
